Earl's NBA power ranking · Week 1, 2026

Milwaukee sits at 28th with a -10.29 neutral-field rating, and that number is no fluke since it's essentially unchanged from last year's -10.22 prior rating against a fairly soft -6.98 schedule. The 1-3 record with a +0.23 vs-market mark says the market has been slightly too low on them, so this is a modest buy-low on the number rather than a real endorsement of the team. With no key players docked and an unchanged rating, expect them to be priced as roughly 10-point underdogs to an average opponent on a neutral floor.
